"Reward" who made graphics for Scoopex, works nowadays for Remedy Entertainment (drawing Max Paine and Alan Wake)! Demos were a good start for him! I think he was actually one of the formers of Remedy.
Part of my all time favorites :) Well done Scoopex! Those bob figures were boring as hell, come to think of it, but I watched this demo start to finish so many times! Lol!
Oh wow, re-discovering the old demos. RSI's Cebit 90 and this one were awesome. Used to listen to the music instead of pop music - old skool ! Those were the days ...
I must agree with everyone who´s saying that this is an outstanding tune. In my opinion, one of the very best tracker songs i know, while it goes far beyont that. Always wished there would be more music like this. Never heard anything that comes close.
Uncle tom was a fantastic musician.you can hear his influences in some dance music today.especially the string chords samples he always used in his modules if you know what i mean.and look what happened to jesper kyd? He went on to make music for hollywood films.mental!!!!
scoopex war bei den demo immer etwas "kantig" in der dramaturgie. den richtigen Schmelz hatten immer die Florian Schröcker (Delta of RSI) - Demo! zB Cebit90.

Wobei natürlich Scoopex "Mental Hangover" auch seine Reize hatte; und durchaus stimmungsvoll war :-))
That is not true! lol.... without the graphics chips like the blitter/copper this demo wasn't possible to do. The blitter did all the linedrawing/pollygons, and most the the moving objects on the screen. And don't forget the copper who took care of all rasterbalks, mirror effects etc on the screen.
@boing4000 Amiga is really great, but what about people? They are outstanding! Andromeda, Khefrens, Batman Group, Scoopex, Laxity, RWO and others....... By the way - did You heard about Natami project? Sorry for my broken English :(

The atmosphere of amiga demos is wonderful as always. That beautiful starfield and the cozy kewl font usage with top notch chip music.

Sound is fucked up in this video. My unofficial (or official) Scoopex YouTube-channel has a version with sound working properly.

This music is standing out as not sounding as anything else, well produced and before protracker was the game. Very catchy.. oh those memories :)

Dude! With skills like these, you could basically remake Starfox for the Amiga! Or maybe SkyRoads... :)

Amiga is the best. Just 7.xxMHz CPU, the amazing custom chips and 512KB/1MB of RAM makes that possible.

Well he did say "custom chips" so that means the chips to contain the blitter, copper, etc :)

Amazing programming skills there.
Too much of the wavy text lines (though they have their charm), but the filled vectors were awesome!
I miss these days. :(

On very early 500, it was not possible. I had one of these myself (bought 1987) with Kick1.2

A classic indeed. Probably one of the first demos I watched when I got my Amiga around that time.
